against dzhokhar tsarnaev for the marathon bombing on monday. he's accused of two charges at this point. terrorism charge, use of a weapon of mass destruction, we've been explaining, that's a term of art in federal law. it doesn't mean in the conventional sense of talking about nuclear or biological weapons. it means any bomb that could injure people. and the other is, malicious destruction of property resulting in death. that's a separate explosives charge in the federal code. and what this does mean is that it's, the government could seek the death penalty based on this charge. and that's an interesting point. because the state of massachusetts does not have the death penalty. so the, it's only in the federal system that the death penalty can be obtained. what i've seen so far in looking through the documents here is a very detailed account of what we have been told was the key piece of evidence that got the fbi on to him in the first place. what he can be seen doing on a surveillance camera tape. and with your permission, andrea, i want to qu
